The Austin Sessions

• Track Listing

Producer Fred Mollin recorded a series of intimate sessions with his favorite songwriters in the late ’90s including Barry Mann, Jimmy Webb and Kristofferson. Mollin knew that Kris yearned to record a stripped-down, rootsy session like this, and the results were transfixing: Me and Bobby McGee, For the Good Times, Sunday Mornin’ Comin’ Down, Help Me Make It Through the Night, Loving Her Was Easier (Than Anything I’ll Ever Do Again) and more. Guests include Steve Earle, Jackson Browne, Mark Knopfler, Vince Gill and Alison Krauss, this remastered reissue on CD or vinyl adds the unreleased session outtakes Jody and the Kid and Best of All Possible Worlds!
